“Of course, your brother is like that. Who do you think would dare do this in Dao?” The woman’s tone drastically changed.

“Let me think about it,” her son said.

The Suns were a big family. Although they engaged in business, at that scale, the relationships and contacts contained within were naturally complicated. It could not be clearly stated in one word. In fact, he had felt that they were too aggressive before. Even there were some conflicts between the two, the Hou family should have its own ambitions and be more inclusive.

After he went out, he sighed. This matter had to be discussed with his father. It might generate hatred between the two families, which would not be good for either side. Who could guarantee that the other party had no secret weapon?

If two tigers fought, one would get injured. Even both might get injured. A third party could benefit from the tussle. Perhaps behind the two families were pushers they had never thought of.

…

In the mountain village, Wang Yao’s family ate dinner and began watching the weather forecast.

The weather forecast showed that there was a typhoon passing through Qi province. There would be wind, lightning, and other extreme weather in the area.

“Will the trees you just planted be alright?” Zhang Xiuying asked.

“It should be no problem,” Wang Yao said.

Although strong winds would pass through, they would not affect core area, and would come from the south. When it passed through the province, the wind would be significantly. Plus, there was a battle array on Nanshan Hill, providing extra protection.

Early the next morning, Miao Sanding came to the mountain village with his plan design and found Wang Yao.

After Wang Yao listened to his explanation, he carefully considered it. Miao Sanding referred to the Feng Shui arrangement for both Yang and Yin and had made artificial changes in the local Feng Shui. The Feng Shui of Xishan Mountain would be changed by means of earth, stone, trees, and water pools.

“You induced water here, but have you considered that it may cause the spread of toxins?” Wang Yao pointed to the map.

“I have considered that point,” Miao Sanding said. “This requires a premise. The last time you said that the source had been blocked, so the water is flowing water. It leads to the spring on Nanshan Hill, flows down the mountain, and injects into the village river. In fact, the water dilutes any toxins from this mountain.”

“I can’t guarantee that the source has been blocked,” Wang Yao said. “As for flow of water into other places, we still need to be cautious.”

Most of the bugs had been eliminated, but the possibility of one or two escaping was very high. Wang Yao could not ensure it was safe, so this scheme had certain risks. If there was any risk, it couldn’t be used.

“Would those bugs be afraid of water?” Miao San asked.

“Yes,” Wang Yao said.

During his experiments, the bugs would more quickly after being soaked in water.

“If this solution does not work, then you can only use another one.” Miao Sanding immediately talked about the second plan.

The difference between this plan and the first one was that there was no water, but there were more trees, which were used to block the wind.

“The last time I was on Xishan, I felt that the wind in this position was very strong,” Miao Sanding said as he pointed to the map.

“Yes, this is a vent for wind,” Wang Yao said.

He grew up in the village, so he knew about the anomalies on the mountains. There was indeed a place on the west hill where the wind was particularly strong the whole year. It was a naturally formed vent.

The wind was invisible, and the world was wide. Wang Yao thought this was a bit imaginary.

After thinking for a while, he said, “You can try it.”

“Okay, let’s try it.” Miao Sanding secretly sighed.

“Choose how many trees, and I will contact people,” Wang Yao said.

“I haven’t calculated it yet,” Miao Sanding said. “It’s best to plant them while calculating.”

Later, Wang Yao called Li Shiyu for trees.

“More?” Li Shiyu was surprised.

Wang Yao was a quality customer with whom he was very fond. in his opinion, the trees on the south of the mountain were plentiful. He couldn’t think why Wang Yao was in a hurry for more trees. Although he was puzzled, he immediately began to prepare.

…

A thousand miles away, a guest visited Su family.

“I will leave it to you,” a woman said.

“I can only say that it is helpful to ask him, but his rules are a bit strange,” Song Ruiping replied.

Her visitor made her somewhat surprised. Although they all lived in Jing, because their dealings were different or they were not in the same branch, they rarely met up. Suddenly, the lady of the Hou family came, and her purpose was unexpected.

She came because of her son, who had a strange disease. She was seeking medical treatment everywhere. She knew Wang Yao’s medical skills were extraordinary, so she asked Song Ruiping for help.

After drinking a cup of tea and chatting for a bit, Hou Shida’s mother left.

Seeking medical attention? Song Ruiping pondered the situation for a while.

Since the other woman had paid her a visit, she was going to help. As for Wang Yao, who would likely become her son-in-law, she felt somewhat helpless.

His rules were strange. Through her conversation with Hou Shida’s mother, Song Ruiping was certain the Hous had already been to see Wang Yao. She did not know why they were refused. If a bad impression had already been rooted, it would be very hard for her to make a difference.

Moreover, she knew about Hou Shida. He was a playboy who did many bad things and took advantage of his family’s power.

“This is troublesome,” Song Ruiping said with a sigh.

“What trouble, Mom?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

“You are back.” Seeing Su Xiaoxue coming back, Song Ruiping immediately put the matter aside. In her opinion, nothing was as important as her family. “Why do you come back today?”

“The courses in the school have finished, and I have nothing to do these two days,” Su Xiaoxue replied.

“Sit down and have some water,” Song Ruiping said. “Is it hot outside?”

“It is not hot,” Su Xiaoxue said with a smile.

In fact, the temperature in the capital was quite hot. It rained a few days before the heat began to rise, so the humidity was very high. It felt like a sauna outside. That kind of weather often made people uncomfortable, unlike pure dry heat. High humidity made people feel like they were being placed in a steamer.

Su Xiaoxue was different. She practiced Kung Fu. Her physical fitness had gone from the fragility of a dying girl to the healthy level of ordinary people. Although she still couldn’t reach Wang Yao’s achievement, the hot weather did not impact her.

“What do you want to do the next few days?” Song Ruiping asked.

“I want to go to see Mr. Wang,” Su Xiaoxue said. She hadn’t seen him some days and missed him.

“What are you going to do there?” Song Ruiping asked.

It was quite normal for a boy to run after a girl, unlike the silly girl before her who was chasing a boy.

“I’m not sure, but I’ll take a plane and arrive quickly,” Su Xiaoxue said.

“Well, have Chu Lian go with you.” Song Ruiping would worry about her daughter if she went on her own.

“Yes, Mom,” Su Xiaoxue said.

“When are you going?” Song Ruiping asked.

“This afternoon,” Su Xiaoxue said. “I already checked, and there is a flight to Dao.”

“OK.” Song Ruiping relented. “I will prepare a meal at noon, which you will eat. You are a little thin.”

“I am not thin,” Su Xiaoxue said. “I can’t be too fat, either. It’s not good for girls to be fat,.”

“Right, I have something to tell you.” Song Ruiping told her about her unexpected guest.

“I will ask Mr. Wang, but Hou Shida’s reputation is not very good, right?” Su Xiaoxue asked. She was not the kind of nerd who only read books on campus. She still knew some news and gossip.

“Well, you don’t have to take it too seriously,” Song Ruiping said. “If he doesn’t want to treat them, then so be it. I think they have already gone there and were refused treatment.”

After talking with her mother for a bit more, Su Xiaoxue went upstairs to her room and called Wang Yao.

“Xiaoxue, don’t you have a class?” Wang Yao softly asked. He was in clinic. After receiving her call, he immediately stopped his work.

“No, today’s class is over,” Su Xiaoxue said. “Are you still busy?”

“Yes, I am in the clinic,” he replied.

“Didn’t you go out of town for a few days?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

“I went to Hongzhou for a few days, so I should be home for a while,” Wang Yao said.

“Hongzhou? Why did you go there?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

“To defeat a demon,” Wang Yao said.

“Really?” Su Xiaoxue’s eyes lit up when she heard his reply.

“Of course it is true,” Wang Yao said.

“Can you give me a detailed explanation if you have time?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

She did not tell Wang Yao about her trip to the mountain village the next day. She wanted to surprise him.

After chatting for a while, they hung up. Wang Yao returned to treating his patient.

The next evening, while Wang Yao was still at home, he heard someone knocking at the door.

“Who is it?” Some people came in after knocking on the door.

He went out to open the door and smelled a familiar odor. After opening the door, he saw a person who seemed like a fairy coming out of a painting.

“Xiaoxue, how come you here?” Wang Yao was very happy.

“I don’t have classes the next two days,” Su Xiaoxue said. “I want to hear more from the gentleman about the demon in Hongzhou.”
